How come the ethnic slurs for white people are pathetic?

Well the only reason there are so many "racial slurs" against other races is because they take more offense to things than white people do. If black people just started ignoring the slurs then they would lose their effect and wouldn't matter anymore.

i know a lot of black people who dont really get offended by the N word

they say that it's just majorly awkward and that they might only act on it because so many people would expect them to

 

lets say you are in a classroom with 6 white kids, 5 asian, 5 spanish and like 4 black kids. lets say that 1 of the white kids says the N word by accident. what do you think will happen?

most likely everybody will immediately turn around and look at 1 of the black kids like "oh crap i wonder if he heard that" basically expecting the black kid to do something about it

ive witnessed this a couple of times

 

and actually black people took the N word and kinda embraced it

the word sticks for some reason

I remember when I moved to South Carolina from New York back in 1990. I was in the 6th or 7th grade and this white kid named Milton was talking to his friend Chad and I got blamed for it. Well in New York everyone says "nigga" no matter the race meaning guy or dude. So the teacher tells me to stop talking and I responded "That wasn't even me that was this nigga!" and she tells me to watch my mouth. So I stop and think to myself "I didn't curse did I?" so I repeat it. I got suspended for 3 days.
